Wooden Cityscapes Sculptures by James McNabb

Once a furniture maker now sculptor James McNabb just opened a new exhibition of work titled Metros at Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami. McNabb continues his theme of skyscraper buildings in his wooden cityscape theme described as “sketching with a bandsaw.” His works use a variety of woods and techniques and even the buildings in the sculptures vary, some even defy traditional architectural rules but they add value to a beautiful sculpture. McNabb says:

I compare hyperrealistic painting to fine woodworking. Both are slow, tedious, detail oriented process that require great care and consideration through every stage of making. In contrast, I compare my style of rapid bandsaw mark making to the fast paced nature of spray can art. It’s my attempt at “urban woodworking”.

Metros will be on view through October 28, 2014 and you can see more of McNabb’s recent work right here.
